Are we switching our name to Debian or Ubuntu too? This is a tad out
of character, and I'm not a big fan at all. Not only does the
upgrade/update fail for me, I believe I'm going to be left with a
broken install as writer, calc, etc. aren't even pulled in for me even
though I had them installed before.

-1, no signoff from me if I can't even do a clean update. What on
earth problem are we trying to solve here? If you install an office
suite, I really don't think we should be fretting over saving a couple
of MB. This package already sees extremely frequent updates so
bandwidth concerns far outweigh any installed size concerns.
